    URBAN FRAGMENTS IN A SEA OF SUBURBS Urban Impressions of Three Neighborhoods in Indianapolis http://thefoxandthecity.com Blair Lorenzo March 11th, 2020 Looking at Indianapolis and Broad Ripple ndianapolis had, for quite some time, been one of those cities which stuck in the back of my mind: a place I had an interest in exploring, but could never quite pin a reason on why—a I feeling I think may be very familiar to those who study cities. Over this past summer, thanks to a new local friend, I finally had the opportunity to indulge that interest, and visit parts of the city and its environs. My timing was far from perfect: not only was my trip brief, but it came only a little more than a month before the opening of the city's new bus rapid transit Red Line. Still, the city has a lot going for it, and hopefully someday soon I will have to opportunity to return and do some more in-depth study. ©2020, Blair Lorenzo http://thefoxandthecity.com In physical terms, Indianapolis is a predominantly suburban, auto-focused city—even more so than many of its similar Midwestern siblings. Of course, like almost every older American city, it did once have a large, thriving streetcar network, but much of the region's physical growth seems to have come at the tail end of the streetcar era and at the dawn of the age of auto-dominance. As such, outside of the downtown—most of which I sadly did not have time to explore on this trip— there is sadly little traditional urban fabric.

  • 17Th Annual Conference October 9-11, 2011 University Place Conference Center and Hotel Indianapolis, Indiana WELCOME to the CUMU CONFERENCE
    17th Annual Conference October 9-11, 2011 University Place Conference Center and Hotel Indianapolis, Indiana WELCOME TO THE CUMU CONFERENCE Dear Colleagues: IUPUI is honored to host the 17th Annual Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities Conference Thank you for joining us for “Creating Tomorrow’s Future Today.” As a place with a unique history, IUPUI (Indiana University– Purdue University Indianapolis) was established in 1969 to bring together the academic programs of the state’s two major universities in the state’s capital and largest population center. As the mayor of Indianapolis said at the time, “A great city needs a great university at its heart.” In keeping with that charge, IUPUI has continued to work with community stakeholders to establish Indianapolis as an amateur sports capital, which made it an attractive place for the new NCAA Headquarters. During the conference, NCAA President Mark Emmert will speak, and the Monday networking dinner will be held at the NCAA Hall of Champions, adjacent to the campus. Representatives of the planning committee for Super Bowl 2012, which will be held in Indianapolis, will also be a part of the conference as they discuss the citywide coalition that formed to present the winning Super Bowl bid. Our dynamic and vibrant city has also received national attention with its award-winning “Indianapolis Cultural Trail: A Legacy of Gene & Marilyn Glick,” part of which runs through campus. Valerie Eickmeier, dean of the Herron School of Art and Design at IUPUI, will lead a walking tour of IUPUI’s public art installations. Conference attendees will also have an opportunity to tour the rest of the world-class urban bike and pedestrian path, which connects neighborhoods, cultural districts, and entertainment amenities, even as it serves as the downtown hub for the entire central Indiana greenway system.

The sites identified on the map at right include existing catalysts, places that exist but could be enhanced, and opportunities for future catalysts. All of these are places along the river where a variety of experiences can be created or expanded. This long list of destinations or opportunity sites is organized by the five discovery themes. Certain locations showed clear overlap among multiple themes and enabled the plan to filter through the long list to identify seven final sites to explore as plan ‘focus areas’ or ‘anchors’.
